Did I tell you all that we joined a co-op this year? Well, we did and it's kind of a big deal for us because it's a 45 minute drive there AND it starts at 9 in the morning! Yikes!
Nonetheless, it's been a really good experience and we have learned that we CAN get up and make it on-time when we plan ahead.
Each of the boys has 4 classes. Jon is taking Human Body, Discovering Great Artists, Patriotic Activities, and P.E. Jake and Joe are taking Quiz Bowl, Chemistry Lab, American Art Appreciation, and Spanish. They are all enjoying their classes and learning so much.
I got a quick video of Jon practicing reciting 21 bones for his Human Body class and thought I'd share it with you all. Tony actually helped come up with ways for Jon to remember the "hard" ones and practiced quite a bit with him. But I'm really proud of him considering he only knew a couple of these a week ago!
I really appreciate all of the moms who organize and teach the co-op classes. I love being able to watch the boys make progress with their classes even when I feel like things get off-track at home. And that, my friends, is SUCH a blessing!

Did I tell you I'm actually teaching a class for our group this year? ASL, 1x a month for multi-age kids... from the tots up to the high schoolers. Should be fun! And hopefully yoga next year as well. Woohoo!
